Plastic Cleaning Bottles

The KegMan 5099 Home & 5299 Professional Five Liter draft system Line Cleaning Starter Kit can clean all draft beer lines up to 100 feet in length. It can also be used with cleaning boards, sockets and caps to do gang cleaning. This kit is suitable for all draft beer dispensing systems with an American Sankey keg coupler. Other KegMan Cleaning Bottles & Accessories are available for use with Bass, Guinness, Spaten, Heineken, Yuengling and everything in between. No matter what cap you require KegMan has it and many other size cleaning bottles as well. All systems follow the same general method.

This kit is the only kit that will work on all danby and other small ¼ keg systems with non-standard Chinese faucets and shanks. If your system is also foaming consider the Foam Fixer Replacement kit which also allows you to use the less expensive direct draw 5320 cleaning kit which will work with all standard American Draft Beer Parts.
